Haiku by Carrie Etter.
She was born in the US, received a PhD in English, and now resides in UK.
Her haiku is almost out of a children's picture book, so I made a suitable haiga for it.

Haiga 169
Haiku by Max Verhart of the Netherlands.
One thing about haiga making is that you come up with something that does not appear in the haiku verse itself. That something, in this case the highheel shoes, enhances the mood of the verse.

Haiga 165
My haiku and haiga.
I was out to the seaside.
The master of an old inn invited me to stay
and treated me with wonderful dishes of crab.
Out on a wintry beach,
I take photo of the setting sun
and her foot prints
